wren_in_black 's review for:

The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead
3.0

This is another one of those books with an amazing premise that I just wanted to love and couldn't. This is the second book like that for me by this particular author. I think I must not connect emotionally with his writing for some reason. I wish I did, because the idea of this story is excellent. I don't believe the execution lived up to the idea.
